Royal Copenhagen Figurines
Discontinued Prior to 1990
All of the following
figurines are FIRST QUALITY and in EXCELLENT condition.
Sizes (in inches) may be the maximum dimension or may refer only to the
height, even when the figurine is longer or wider than high. Many more
figurines available; please inquire if you are looking for a particular item.
Click on any Title/Description appearing in BLUE to see a photo.
Figurine Numbers: In 1987, Royal Copenhagen merged
with Bing and Grondahl (B&G), the other leading
Danish porcelain manufacturer. By 1990, all figurines in production were
given NEW three digit model numbers.
All the figurines listed here were discontinued before 1990 and were
never assigned new numbers. Figurines in production in 1990 were
assigned new numbers and are listed on a separate page (click on Current and Recently
Discontinued Royal Copenhagen Figurines).
Prices: ALL of the following
figurines were discontinued before 1990 and therefore have no current MSRP
("List Price"). I have shown the 1981 MSRP for figurines that
were still in production in 1981; figurines discontinued before 1981 are listed
as "1981=Disc". On
average, the MSRP for current figurines have just about doubled in price since
1981 -- if you double the 1981 MSRP, you will get a pretty good estimate of
what they would sell for new if still in production. For example, RC #260
Two Puppies had a 1981 MSRP of $218; if still in production, its current MSRP
would be approximately $218 x 2 = $436. I sell this figurine today for
$125. In MOST cases, I have priced figurines BELOW their 1981 MSRP, so you can
buy discontinued figurines for less than you would have paid nearly 30 years
ago.
A Collector's Guide to
Royal Copenhagen Porcelain
(by Nick and Caroline Pope) was published in 2001 by Schiffer
Books. It is a large format, hard cover book containing approximately 900 color
pictures; almost of the figurines listed for sale below are pictured in
this book. It is the most complete listing and the best price guide for
Royal Copenhagen figurines. If you collect (or sell) Royal Copenhagen
figurines, you should have this book! Cover price $49.95; I have it for
sale for $35. As with any price
guide, the prices shown reflect the opinions and experience of the authors.
An updated Price Guide would need to be about 20% higher just to reflect
the declining value of the US Dollar. In most cases, I have included the
price range from this book in the table below under "Book Value".
Extremely scarce figurines are always difficult to value in a
Price Guide; some items are therefore listed below with a book value of “Scarce”. In those
cases where the HIGH end of the price range is LESS than 1981 MSRP, I may list
the BOOK VALUE below as “Error”.

Factory Seconds: Some Royal Copenhagen
figurines were marked as Second Quality (2nds) with a vertical scratch through
the Royal Copenhagen three-wavy-line trademark. Sometimes this was
because of a minor manufacturing defect (e.g., a blemish in the glaze), and
sometimes first quality figurines were marked as seconds to clear out excess
inventory (discontinued items or overstocks). Second Quality figurines
were sold by the factory at 25% to 50% below MSRP, and were not returnable.
They are very popular in Denmark because they can be an excellent value.
I do not ship factory seconds unless you specifically request them. ALL
figurines listed above are First Quality. I usually have a few
second quality figurines in stock at significant savings; dealers and resellers
should inquire if interested.
